I ask you , can you re think it ? I do believe you have a great idea and would look great being pulled by a buggy or a trike . My thought was go the pop tent rout by reinforcing the sides to be able to accommodate 2 electric pistons and extend the deck lid 3/4 of the whole build with a lip seal to keep the weather out . As you have the lid completely open , you could have a 3 sided weather proof canvas tent pop out .

Great Idea, but sounds like a lot of expense, and not really suit the purpose we need it for. When the two boys and I go camping / traveling, we already have our tents, airbeds, fire equiptment etc. The issue is being able to fit them in the bug with us. To be honest this is already way more work than I anticipated, I am just about over it and have other jobs that urgently need attention. My WB panel van, will be getting an attachable tent and set up as an overnight camper, for the wife and I. Thats just one of the jobs in the que.
